About Irvine Pediatric Dentistry and Orthodontics

Dr. Rachel Anderson takes a conservative approach here, handling complex cases like cleft palate treatment and mid-treatment transfers with care.

Irvine Pediatric Dentistry and Orthodontics is a pediatric dental practice that also offers orthodontic treatment, including Invisalign, traditional and lingual braces, clear aligners, early treatment, and TMJ care. Reviews note a higher-than-usual number of families transferring mid-treatment and children starting early phase 1 treatment, along with cases involving special needs or medical complexity, such as a child with cleft lip and palate. Dr. Rachel Anderson is described as favoring a conservative approach, avoiding unnecessary fillings, extractions, or retainers when not needed, and using lasers to reduce drilling. A few reviews mention billing issues, including unclear insurance information and a slow refund process.

I’ve been using this dentistry for a few years now. They have seen all four of my kiddos and have been so kind, professional and made each one of my kids feel completely at ease and special. They have excellent care and everything is in house. My second daughter has had a few cavities filled and their equipment is top notch, painless and even fun with the iPad shows. I cannot recommend them enough. Just the best pediatric dentistry!

My kids have been coming to Dr. Y since they were little (recommended by a friend), from routine checkup to braces. Dr. Y and his team are always patient and accommodating, answering questions and guiding us through every process. Highly recommend!

Dr Y was wonderful-excellent bedside manner, personable, and I appreciated his honest, genuine opinion for my son. The office staff was welcoming, smiling, and when the hygienist has been there 40 years, you know she loves her job and workplace. It showed! Thank you to all of you, we will be back.

We’ve been going to Dr. Y for years, and even as my kids have grown (they're now 13 and 16), we’ve continued to have a wonderful experience. The entire team is friendly, professional, and makes sure my teens feel comfortable and respected at every visit. My oldest had braces done here, and Dr. Y was amazing throughout the entire process—patient, informative, and truly skilled. He made what could have been a stressful experience feel smooth and manageable. The office is always clean, organized, and runs on time, which we really appreciate with our busy family schedule. I highly recommend Dr. Y and his team for anyone looking for high-quality dental care for their kids or teens!

We’ve had a great experience at this pediatric dental office. The staff is always kind and welcoming, and the environment is very kid-friendly. The doctor takes the time to explain everything clearly and listens carefully, which we really appreciate. My daughter actually looks forward to coming here and feels completely comfortable during her visits. Highly recommend to any parents!
